The Silencers - Peter Gunn, Remote Control and Illegal - Video
PUBLISHED:  Aug 26, 2009
DESCRIPTION:
One of my earliest and most favorite videos I ever recorded. There's a better version here on YT which features the opening segment, but this one is still SO cool. It was recorded on "Rock World" in December of 1980. According to the band's Facebook page, the "concert" at the end was recorded Aug. 23, 1980 at the Acme Banana Company in the Strip District of Pittsburg. The songs are from the album "Rock 'N' Roll Enforcers". Here's a couple of info links about the band:

It's a shame they never made it big......especially the dancing cowboy at the end.....but he was already big! Anybody know if this was filmed in the Pittsburgh area?
